Furniture Moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar 0560533140 | Tower & Compound Delivery with Assembly

Saudi Express moves your furniture from Jeddah to Al Khobar in a closed truck: we dismantle and wrap in Jeddah, then deliver and assemble in your Khobar apartment or villa, arranging the lift booking and compound gate before arrival. Prices start from SAR 230 for a small apartment load and rise with full packing, dismantling and assembly and the size of the move. To book, call or WhatsApp 0560533140.

How far is Al Khobar from Jeddah by truck?

Al Khobar is about 1,400 km from Jeddah by road: the truck drives to Riyadh, then to Dammam and on for about 20 km to Al Khobar, which takes 15 to 16 hours of driving with rest stops. So we load in Jeddah in the morning, the driver rests midway or continues according to the agreed schedule, and the furniture reaches Al Khobar the next morning or the one after.

A morning arrival in Al Khobar is not a small detail; many residential towers only allow moving in and out in the morning, and the afternoon sun and humidity near the corniche tire the crew and stretch unloading time.

How much does furniture moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar cost?

Furniture moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar starts from SAR 230 for a small apartment load with transport only, from SAR 510 with packing and from SAR 555 with dismantling and assembly. Al Khobar sits next to Dammam on the same road, so its starting prices are based on the Jeddah–Dammam route plus the short local leg; the real difference comes from the floor, the lift and the type of building.

Starting prices for moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar:

If your apartment is in a tower with a large lift you will rarely need a crane, but a big sofa or a fitted wardrobe that will not fit the lift is lifted from outside. We decide this from photos before the date and include it in the price from the start.

What is different about delivering to Khobar towers and compounds?

Delivering in Al Khobar takes more coordination than most cities because much of the housing is apartments in managed towers and gated compounds with security. Management usually requires a lift booking at a set hour, protection for its walls and floor, and sometimes a rear door or service entrance for furniture. Compounds ask for the resident’s name, unit number and the truck and crew details before entry.

We handle the practical side: we prepare the truck, driver and crew details for you to send to management, bring lift protection blankets and keep to the booked hour. As these procedures differ between buildings and can change, we confirm them with you on booking day and again the day before arrival.

How do we arrange the load to suit building lifts?

We arrange the load in Jeddah so it comes out in Al Khobar in the order that suits the lift: long dismantled parts such as wardrobe panels and bed sides are bundled to a length that fits the lift, boxes of similar sizes are stacked on trolleys, and pieces that cannot be dismantled are loaded near the truck door if they will go up by crane. That cuts the number of lift trips and keeps the crew within the booked hour.

Before loading we measure the large pieces that do not come apart and compare them with the lift and apartment door sizes you send us; if they will not pass, we arrange the crane from the start instead of discovering the problem in front of the lift. This simple step saves hours and cost on both sides.

How do we pack for a long trip that ends on the coast?

For the Khobar run we pack in layers that protect against rubbing and dust and let moisture escape, because the road is hot and dry while the destination is humid. Wood and polished pieces get a blanket and then plastic, leather gets a cloth cover, appliances get boxes with foam, and glass and mirrors get rigid card and travel upright.

• Mattresses in sealed bags, pillows and bedding in boxes for their room.
• Kitchenware wrapped piece by piece, plates standing on edge in the box.
• Screws in bags named for each piece and taped to it.
• Boxes marked with the room name and number in the Khobar apartment.

Which districts do we collect from in Jeddah and deliver to in Al Khobar?

We collect from every district of Jeddah, such as Al Shati, Al Zahra, Al Naeem, Al Mohammadiyah, North Obhur, Al Rawdah, Al Khalidiyah, Al Safa, Al Marwah, Al Hamdaniyah, Al Rehab and Al Fayhaa. In Al Khobar we deliver to North and South Khobar, Al Olaya, the Corniche, Al Aqrabiyah, Al Thuqbah, Al Yarmouk, the Golden Belt, Al Rakah, Al Hamra, Al Khuzama, Al Jawharah, Al Amwaj, Al Bandariyah and Al Aziziyah, and to the compounds along the Khobar–Dammam road.

Once you settle in Al Khobar and need local moves, our moving company in Al Khobar page covers services inside the city, and in Jeddah our local services are on moving company in Jeddah.

What are the steps of moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar?

We split the tasks clearly between us so nothing is lost along the way:

1. Survey by photos or a visit and the price.
2. Fixing the loading day in Jeddah and the unloading hour in Al Khobar.
3. Dismantling, packing and orderly loading.
4. The drive via Riyadh and Dammam to Al Khobar.
5. Unloading within the lift booking, then assembly and a final check.

How do we move bedrooms and large sofas into Khobar apartments?

Bedrooms are fully dismantled in Jeddah because their panels fit any lift; the sofa is usually what causes trouble. A large corner sofa or one made to fit a particular majlis may not pass the apartment door or turn in the corridor. So we ask about the sofa before the date: if it separates into sections we split and wrap each one, and if it is a single piece we measure it against the lift and apartment doors and choose between the stairs and a crane.

Built-in wardrobes do not travel as they are; their panels are dismantled and numbered and may need adjusting on assembly if the ceiling height or wall width differs in the Khobar flat. Large mattresses travel in sealed bags and are never bent to fit a lift, because bending damages the springs. All of this goes on the survey list so the Khobar crew knows what to expect.

Do you move appliances and AC units to Khobar apartments?

Yes. We move fridges, washing machines, cookers and TVs, and split and window AC units are removed by a technician who closes the gas circuit before the move. Because many Khobar towers have central air conditioning, ask the tower management whether you need your AC units at all; you may save the cost of removing, moving and refitting them, or sell them in Jeddah before you travel and move only what you really need.

Large appliances travel upright and strapped to the truck wall, TVs sit between mattresses, and cookers are disconnected with their gas valve closed. On arrival we place each appliance in position, leave you to switch it on after the right wait, and help connect the washing machine hoses if the water point is ready.

When is the right time to move furniture to Al Khobar?

The right time is whatever lets you unload in the morning on a working day when building management allows lift use. In the summer months humidity on the east coast is very high in the afternoon, so early unloading is faster, easier on the crew and safer for the furniture, while winter allows a longer working window.

If you are tied to a job start date or your children’s school start, book early and leave at least two days between loading day and your first day at work; that margin absorbs any delay on the road or with the lift booking without upsetting your plans. We contact you the day before to confirm the time and route.

What should you do on your first day in Al Khobar?

The first day after arrival sets the tone for your first week, so follow these priorities:

• Assemble the bedrooms first; the crew starts with them before the living room and majlis.
• Open the essential kitchen and bathroom boxes before the rest.
• Switch on the air conditioning and any dehumidifiers before opening boxes of electronics.
• Wait a few hours before switching on the fridge, and check the washing machine after fitting its hoses.
• Go through the box list with the crew before they leave and note any issue immediately.

Do you store furniture if the Khobar apartment is not handed over yet?

Yes, we store the furniture wrapped in Jeddah from SAR 140 per month and send it to Al Khobar when you receive the home. This is common for people starting work in the Eastern Province in temporary housing or waiting for a new lease; details are on our furniture storage page. Optional cover for the load is also available based on its value.

Why might moving to Al Khobar cost a little more than Dammam?

The price differs slightly because Al Khobar is a short drive further and its housing type changes the working time. A flat in a tower with a dedicated goods lift can be unloaded faster than a house without nearby parking, and the opposite holds if the lift is small or the booking is only one hour. That is why we price each move on its details, not on the city name.

Waiting time is another factor: if the truck arrives on time but finds the lift booked by another resident or the gate has not registered the details, the crew and truck stand idle. So we ask you to get the booking confirmed in writing by building management while we confirm our arrival time, so both sides meet at the same hour and the cost stays as agreed.

Tips for moving from Jeddah to Al Khobar

• Start sorting clothes and books two weeks ahead and donate what you do not need.
• Pack a three-day bag with essentials, as the furniture may arrive a day after you.
• Make sure power and air conditioning are on in the Khobar flat before arrival; humidity is high.
• Photograph appliance connections before dismantling to make refitting easier.
• If you only have a few items, ask about our small moves service.

For small moves such as a single room or appliances only, see our small moves service.

Do we move to other Eastern Province cities or abroad?

Yes, the same trip reaches Dammam and Dhahran, each with its own page such as furniture moving from Jeddah to Dhahran. If you will move from Al Khobar to a nearby Gulf country or further, that is a separate service under international shipping.
